Once again, a great article by Stephanie Feldstein of Change.org, about this issue. Please read the article and sign the petition, which will generate a letter to your NYS Senator and Assemblymember to ban the horse-drawn carriage industry in NYC.
Anyone can sign the petition. If you live outside NYS - letters will be sent to Senator Tony Avella; Assemblymember LInda Rosenthal, the bill sponsors - and the heads of the Cities Committee in both the Senate and Assembly.
